Cristiano Ronaldo has scored a variety of goals in his career but when it comes to music his playlists also exhibit variety. In the lives of football players music definitely plays a big role. Players can be seen singing a particular song together or getting pumped up before an upcoming match.
Very often football players can be seen with their headphones on in the team bus or on the way to the stadium before a match.
Is Ronaldo a fan of Future?
Recently, in a video on X (formerly Twitter), the Al-Nassr forward was found in his room listening to the song “Lay Up” sung by American rapper Future.
An old photo of the former Real Madrid star has also resurfaced on the web. In the photo, Ronaldo is seen listening to music before a match with his phone facing the cameras.
On zooming in, it can be found that he was listening to the album ‘D2S’ which was released by Future in 2015. The album became a hit selling over 126,000 copies in the first week.
Which other artists does CR7 listen to?

The captain of the Portuguese national team is known for his mentality and his nerves of steel. It is worth wondering how the 38-year-old finds the motivation and the hunger to push himself year after year even after achieving so much in his career.
